Talk:Caboclo

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The term is not correct, for the offspring of african and natives the term would be either mameluc or creole.

Caboclo is really the mixture between white and natives of the americas, as this debate in youtube clearly shows:

Where the representant went to the brazillian congress in order to state clear this difference as native lands are being given to non descendants of this offspring.

Other examples:

Therefore I would like to ask one of the moderators to change this misunderstanding, if I cannot do it myself.

As I have removed the sentence: "(or mixed Native American and African)" because it is not due.

My best regards.
